Meng Rou thought she was Jiang Xian's lawfully wedded wife. But in Jiang Xian's eyes, she was no more than a concubine worth two taels of gold.
*
When Meng Rou married Jiang Wu, he was a crippled military household soldier, gravely wounded and lying on his bed, barely clinging to life.
She spent three years helping him recover from his injuries and illness, supporting him as he learned to stand again, and building a better life for them both.
Just when she thought their hardships were finally over, she heard that Jiang Wu had been reinstated to his former official post.
It turned out her husband was no ordinary soldier at all. He was a nobleman of the current dynasty who had fallen into obscurity in the countryside.
Jiang Xian thought Meng Rou would never leave him.
She could wear simple clothes and hairpins for his sake, and plunge her hands into icy water in the depths of winter to wash his clothes and change his bandages. She could watch him reclaim his power step by step, clear his name, and return to the heights of glory and influence.
Naturally, she would also watch him welcome a noble bride with a grand procession stretching ten li.
But Meng Rou ran away. On the very day Jiang Xian celebrated his wedding night, she jumped into a freezing river and drowned.
Her clothes were stained with mud, and her bloated corpse was unrecognizable.
A maid had gone missing from the Duke's manor. The Marquis of Wu searched the whole city day and night, only to find a woman's corpse.
Watching Jiang Xian grow more and more unhinged, people slowly began to understand.
She wasn't just a maid. She was Jiang Xian's very life.
While the capital descended into chaos, Meng Rou was preparing for her wedding.
She had a new name, a new identity, and a new person with whom she wanted to spend her life.
On the day of the wedding, she waited in her room all night in her bridal gown.
The only one who came was Jiang Xian, who barged in and used the bloodstained tip of his sword to lift the sash of her dress.
Jiang Xian thought Meng Rou was a lowborn commoner, a concubine worth only two taels of gold.
But later, even as he knelt in the mud, covered in wounds and begging desperately, all he could see was Meng Rou's heartless retreating figure.
She never once looked back.

Theme: Be independent and strong, and never stop fighting
... Forget it, if the male protagonist says "Kill her when I die", his subordinates will really execute it! Isn't this an occasion for the two of them to quarrel privately? If the male protagonist is sincere and wants to take the female protagonist to death even if he dies, then what exactly has he reflected on in the previous dozens of chapters?
Very well written! I skipped two chapters because the heroine herself lamented, "Why do you always let me meet him when I'm embarrassed and make him my benefactor?" This is often the case with female romance protagonists. This is not a matter of choice due to their abilities, but rather a matter of destiny. But in this embarrassing situation, the author still came up with new ideas and their core contradictions.
After seeing this, I really felt why Lin Yuniang and Ying were so inappropriate. The male protagonist never consulted the female protagonist before making any decision. In my opinion, it is not a question of whether he has a long mouth or not. "For your own good" and "for your sake" are true, but disrespecting others is also true.
Dear, [let me know] I know the heroine's old relationship is unforgettable, 😏 but please make the hero think that he is overthinking.
What I read turned out to be a monthly update.
The person Kaka presses the two-blood fingerprint is his wife. The male protagonist is as disgusting as ever... The female protagonist cannot suddenly become wise.
I made a blind guess, and there will be a plot twist later, maybe a war or something, the male protagonist saves the heroine again, and then the heroine is moved and expresses her heartfelt feelings to each other, and then the ending is beautiful.
The finale is almost here, why has this guy never learned to respect the heroine from the beginning to the end?
I really like the heroine. She always has courage and perseverance in this very realistic and cruel background. She is weak but not weak, kind but not hypocritical. She is really great.
Is it considered an OE? The whole article is pretty good. There are a few readers for this article. I wonder if the author stopped writing for too long and no one found this good article. Will the author write any extras in the future? I want to read Chu He's side story, and hope he lives in another place. Only after reading this book do I realize how troublesome ancient ID cards are.
